Chapter 3
Shadow's POV
"Boys time for breakfast." Aunt May said.
I got up first. Usually Peter and get up at the same time but since it's the weekend. Peter likes to sleep in a bit longer. I got, brushed my teeth and showered. Then I went to the kitchen to have breakfast.
"Good morning Aunt May." I said.
"Good morning sweetheart. How'd you sleep?" She asked.
"I slept well." I said simply. The truth is. I've slept better than I ever have in years since that random ball of light brought me to New York.
"Well that's good." May says.
I take my Usual seat at the table and May places a plate of Waffle in front of me. It was my kind too. Chocolate Strawberry. With Caramel syrup.
I practically devoured them. They're just that delicious.
"Well someone's hungry." Aunt May laughed.
I simply nodded in response.
I heard Peter coming towards the kitchen.
" Good Morning Aunt May, Good Morning Shadow." He said
"Good Morning Bambi." We greet back.
Peter took a seat next to Shadow.
Aunt May placed a plate of Waffles in front of Peter and just me Peter practically inhaled the waffles. I'm telling you they're just that good.
After breakfast Peter and I washed the dishes and headed back upstairs to finish up packing. To tell you the truth I was nervous. I know me Shadow the ultimate life form was nervous.
So many thoughts were going through my head at the moment. I mean What if they don't like me? I know Peter said they would but I've done some research on the Bats and what i found says other wise. But I trust Peter so I'll push my fears aside and take his word for it.
I mean these are the people Bambi grew up with and the people who raised him. He's one of the most innocent person since Maria he's ever met. He was literally a ball of sunshine and he needed to be protected at all costs. If anyone dared to try and hurt him they would pay.
As I was putting the last of the belongings I would need to take with me in my suitcase I noticed that Peter's phone was getting a lot of notifications. It's probably just Ned and Mj. I haven't met them yet. But I've heard plenty of good things about them. I'm sure Peter will introduce us soon.
Peter's POV
My phone rang I was going to get it when I noticed Shadow picked it up. I froze in place. "Please don't read the texts?" I thought nervously. It's most likely one of my siblings. The last thing I need is for Shadow to see that. If he see the text messages it will ruin the second part of his surprise.
You see I've been taking videos and pictures of Shadow and sending them to the family group chat. Everyone excited to finally meet him. Tony's been begging to meet him first since we both live in New York. Even the other Avengers have begged to meet my new partner and let's not forget about Fury. He's been breathing down my neck about meeting Shadow.
I told everyone that they would get a chance to meet him. But first I want Shadow to meet the rest of the Bat family and hopefully he'll be the newest member of our crazy family.
I just finished up the last of the packing I had to do and grabbed my phone before Shadow could. As I suspected it was the family group chat. I quickly sent a few responses and put my phone in my pocket.
After I finished texting everyone back Shadow and I took our suitcases downstairs. So that we wouldn't have to rush tomorrow. We went over the check list with Aunt May to make sure we didn't forget anything.
Once all of that was all done Shadow and I went to the living room to watch a movie with Aunt May. It was Shadow's turn to pick the movie. Choose Fast and Furious. We ended up having a Fast and Furious movie marathon.
It was cool. Today was just a chill day. Time seemed to fly by the fifth movie finished. It was time for dinner. Aunt May ordered Italian from that new place Uncle Tony was talking about last week.
He said food was really good and he was right it was really good.
Narrator 's POV
They all enjoyed the meal together. After dinner the boys washed dishes and then went to their rooms to go to bed. Tomorrow morning they would head out and start their journey to Gotham.
The Next Day
Peter and Shadow got up early and got ready for the day. Once they were both dressed they went to the kitchen to cook breakfast while Aunt May was still asleep. By the time they finished cooking they set the table.
Shadow went to wake Aunt May.
In Aunt May's Room
Shadow zipped into her room. He was quick and quiet. He tapped her on the shoulder to wake her up. She turned to face him. " Good morning Shadow. " she said ruffling his hair. "Good morning Aunt May." He said.
May got up and went to the bathroom to shower and get ready. Shadow went back downstairs to have breakfast with Peter.
Back In The Kitchen
Shadow sped into the kitchen like a blur. He sat in his seat next to Peter and began to eat the food they prepared. It was very good. Later May enters the kitchen.
"Aw you boys made breakfast!" She said excitedly.
"We wanted to do something special for you." Shadow said.
Peter nods in agreement. "Since you do so much for us."
May smiled. "You boys are so sweet."
She sat down and ate breakfast with her boys.
As the three of them enjoyed their breakfast. May got a phone call. She picked it up and answered.
Phone call
May: Hello
?: Hey it's me. So I heard you were going to Gotham to introduce Shadow to Bruce and the kids.
May: Yeah we are.
?: Why didn't you invite me. I wanna meet him too. Since the kid won't introduce him to me. I mean I am the boy's Uncle.
May: Tony. I already know you'll be there before us. SO I don't see why you're complaining.
Tony: It's the principle of the thing. But you're right I was going to be in Gotham for a couple of weeks anyway. Still would've been nice of to meet him before hand.
May: We could carpool.
Tony: You just want to see Happy don't you.
May: I also don't feel like driving. So what do you say.
Tony: Happy and I will pick up later this evening.
May: Yes! You're a life saver.
Tony: You're welcome.
May ends the phone call and gets up from the table to clean the dishes. Peter and Shadow share a look.
"Hey Aunt May who was on the phone?" Peter asked.
"It was Tony. He said he'd pick us up this evening to go to your father's." She as she finished cleaning the dishes.
"He just wants to meet Shadow before anyone else does." Peter laughs as he says that.
"You know how your uncle is." May reply's
Shadow was excited to meet the Ironman. He's seen him and the other Avengers fight on tv and live while out with Peter and May. They were quite impressive.
